No an iphone is cheaper then a phone + YP-P2. Not to mention far more capable then both devices put together and much easier to use then both devices put together.

what if you already have a phone?

besides, this thread isn't about how better the iphone is compared to the universe. i myself am interested in how well the p2 integrates with your cell phone, does it act just like a bluetooth headset?

several bluetooth phones are available from verizon wireless for free after the two-year contract if you buy online. brand new 8gb P2 = $249.

granted, there's no really good wifi in there.

Have you ever tried watching movies on those phones? Browse the internet? Use those phones as a bluetooth device to connect to the internet via?? I think you're missing the point.

By buying iPhone you will save tons of money because it offers a huge amount of functionality. For people who actually are interested in a functional device iPhone is a financial godsend. It has everything and it works well for it's price.

Exactly, LOL. How can somebody in this thread be talking about costly players and not have a standard cell phone w/ bluetooth?

Anyway, yes, its pretty much like a headset. You can either receive calls or dial out with the keypad and you can send all your contacts to the P2 so you never have to use your phone again as long as its on and paired via Bluetooth.

MTP and you can make it into UMS as well with a simple fw upgrade.

There are other phones out there then just the iPhone. I've got a SE P1i now that can browse the net with its built in wi-fi, watch videos on there, etc etc. I've paired it with the P2, now my phone can be in my pocket or whatever and I can take calls and make calls from the mp3 player. Most phones have bluetooth these days! With the P2 i can lsiten to my music, watch videos in 16:9 aspect, make/recieve calls via bluetooth function! With much better sound and video quality than the iPhone! This is just the beginning for the P2....

Stupid question time: You mean there's a microphone on this thing for the mobile phone pairing feature?
